What does a carhop do
I’ve been thinking about working at Sonic but I wanna know what its like to be the car hop as I feel like that is the most fun thing to do and I would probably be pretty good at it. Is it hard to do? What else do you do besides bring people their food and stuff? Thanks for any advice
